Flexible Cabinet Styles and Configurations |
| |
Cabinet Size |
All cutlists and models can be adjusted
to any width, height or depth. |
● |
| |
Cabinet Openings |
All cabinets openings are fully
adjustable. By adjusting the face frame rails (or stretchers and
partitions in frameless cabinets), you can adjust the widths and height
of the cabinet openings. |
| |
Doors and Drawer Fronts |
CabinetCRUNCHER will calculate the exact
finished size of all doors and drawer fronts. For all cabinet openings,
you can specify installation of a single door, double door or open span
(no door). You can specify any door overlay, inset or door gap
requirements. |
● |
| |
Fixed and Removable Shelves |
Install any quantity or combination of
fixed and removable shelves. Fixed shelves enable you to partition your
cabinet at face frame rail locations (or you can replace stretchers for
frameless cabinets). You can adjust the shelves width to set-back from
the front of the cabinet. For removable shelves, you can specify the
amount of lateral clearance (gap) within the cabinet opening. |
● |
| |
End Panels |
Any type or style of end panel can be
installed on the right and/or left side of the cabinet. By adjusting the
face frame scribes, you can join the end panels to the stile and create
a wide variety of finished edges. |

Examples of a "2L+2R" Base Cabinet
|
CabinetCRUNCHER uses a unique naming convention to identify all the various
cabinet configurations. For example, a "2L+2R" describes any cabinet
that has two openings on the left ("2L") and two openings on the right side
of the cabinet ("2R").
The examples below are just a couple examples of a "2L+2R"
cabinet configuration. You'll notice that each of these examples have two
opening on the right and left side of the cabinet. By adjusting the the
overall size of the cabinet and the size of the cabinet openings, and then
installing any combination of either fixed and/or removable
shelves/partitions, you can
create custom cabinets for almost any application.
Each of the cabinet openings can be designed for a variety of purposes. You
can install single or double doors, use it for drawers, or leave it "open" for display,
electronics, shelving, etc.
The example on the right illustrates how you can add a "fixed shelf" at the center
rails to partition the upper and lower cabinet openings.
CabinetCRUNCHER and CabinetVIEW is designed to provide high flexibility that
enables you to design and build almost any
type of cabinet derivative.
